alien angel 500 copy

The image shows a mirrored and etched version of a photograph of the Japanese musician Gackt; the original is in a 34 page photoshoot in Vol 72 of Shoxx 1999 and is in colour. I don't know if the copyright belongs to the magazine or to the photographer.

 

The words derive from the idea that aliens and angels are easily confused! Gackt also plays with these ideas (what is human? what is not human? Is human or not human better?) and I've imagined him as the small boy who was the only one to see the alien as an angel.
